Answer to Question 1

A
Waste products are excreted by the lungs (carbon dioxide and water), the kidneys (metabolic waste and excess vitamins and minerals), and the large intestine (in feces). The liver processes metabolic products but does not excrete them. The pancreas, small intestine, skin, and spleen do not play a role in excretion.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
For individuals on hemodialysis, fluid allowance is determined by adding the volume of any urine produced to 1000 mL of fluid. For this individual that would be 400 mL + 1000 mL = 1400 mL.
